Berlioz Requiem and Inbal
Posted by dieter barkhoff on February 18, 2022, 2:09 am
Once again, thank you Ralph Moore for your thoughts on this magnificent work. I really appreciate your comments regarding the Inbal performance. This leads me to suggest that perhaps Inbal is the most underrated conductor in the world today. I have his Dvorak on Teldec, a magnificent Ma Vlast, also on Teldec, and the Mahler and Bruckner symphonies, and I understand he has re-recorded some of these on Exon. I also have 2 recordings of the Schumann Symphonies, the Scriabin, and some recordings in which he features as the accompanying conductor. Does anyone else have any thoughts about this?
You may well be right about Inbal - in addition to the splendid Berlioz, all that original version Bruckner, complete cycles of Mahler and Shostakovich, lots of Czech music and even opera (he was at La Fenice in the 80's) and I haven't heard anything by him that I do not like.
